Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 2133

After Luca had successfully clocked out, she walked into the CEO’s exclusive elevator with Luke.

The elevator doors closed slowly, and Zoey withdrew her gaze as she could not help but sigh. “What a perfect match, but how unfortunate…”

Rhett walked into the office and heard her sigh, so he asked out of curiosity, “What match? What’s unfortunate?”

Zoey shook her head as she dared not gossip about the boss’ relationship with him. “Are you going home?”

“How can I go home when the research professor hasn’t gone home yet?” said Rhett while picking up a stack of files next to the printer on the desk. He was the laboratory assistant. If the researchers were working overtime, he would have to as well.

“But Dr. Craw has just gone home,” said Zoey.

Rhett was about to exit the office when he stopped in his tracks all of a sudden and looked back at her. “Dr. Craw got off work already?”

“She just clocked out half a minute ago. She should have arrived downstairs by now,” informed Zoey. If Luca did not work overtime, then the researchers should not have to work overtime either.

Rhett looked at the files helplessly. “These files still need to be examined and approved by Dr. Craw.”

“Talk about it later. Dr. Craw seems quite busy today.” Zoey did not mention Luke and implied that he should not disturb Luca.

The fact that both of them left together must be because they had a date. If she was interrupted by work messages and calls while on a date, it would just spoil the mood.

“Without Dr. Craw’s approval of these files, a large portion of the research can’t be continued,” said Rhett with a frown. If it were not for the meeting at Watson today, these matters would not have been delayed.

“Then talk about it afterward. If the research can’t continue, just let the researchers go home,” said Zoey.

Rhett looked at her. “Do you know something?”

“What?” Zoey looked at him with big eyes.

“Just now, you told Dr. Craw that the boss was waiting for her in her office…” Rhett checked to see if anyone else was around before asking.

Zoey pursed her lips into a smile. It seemed like Rhett was not as oblivious as other men, and he knew certain things. “Good that you know, so don’t disturb Dr. Craw.”

Rhett looked at the files in his hand and sighed helplessly. “I got it. I’ll let the researchers go home first.”

“Okay.” As soon as she heard that they were getting off work, she started to pack up her things. If they were going home, that meant that she could leave work on time too.

…

40 minutes later, Luke’s car was parked in the parking lot of Crawford Manor.

It was snowing outside.

Luca was about to push open the car door when Luke said, “Hold on.”

Luca stopped opening the door and looked at him with a puzzled face.

Mr. Griffin rushed over with an umbrella in his right hand and another in his left.

Luke pushed open the car door, and Mr. Griffin immediately put the umbrella over his head. “Young Master Luke, you’re back.”

“Yes.” Luke shut the car door and took the umbrella from Mr. Griffin’s right hand. He went around the front of the car to the passenger’s side and opened the door, he said to Luca inside, “You can come down now.”

Luca realized that he was trying to shield her from the snow. She lowered her gaze and had no choice but to comply with his request, so she got out of the car.

Luke held the umbrella over her head. The snow fell in droves, yet not a single snowflake landed on Luca’s head and shoulders.
